Cast members of light-hearted musical “Anything Goes” set sail with the premiere of their long-anticipated show this Thursday. Other performances take place Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m., and there will also be a matinee on Sunday at 2 p.m.

"This show is different from others we've done in the past because of all the extra effort that has gone into directing each specific aspect of the production," said junior Chaz Main, who plays Sir Evelyn Oakleigh, a wealthy Englishman with a quirky accent.

After a mere three weeks in between productions, the drama department promptly cued the auditions for winter musical “Anything Goes” two weeks ago.

This Cole Porter show is different from the usual repertoire of annual musicals, all due to one unique addition: tap dancing. Susan Dini, the principal’s secretary and an avid tap dancer, has stepped up to take the lead as choreographer for the show.
